>> i heard that these two, maybe three, young men were in a vehicle. they were riding down 601, saw the car on the side of the road, i guess saw the boy walking. they turned back around. i guess they were attempting to, i don't want to say, you know, mess around with him or something like that, and stuck something out the window and it, you know, hit him in -- i don't know if it hit him in the head or the back or where it hit him. and then that's pretty much all i heard. i did hear names. i heard a name, and that name was, he goes by buster murdaugh. >> i went to school with buster. and when we were younger, stephen played baseball with buster and a few classmates. and buster's grandfather and dad

cl-062-15. it's a reference to a collision in hampton county on sandy run road. >> there was not a whole lot done in that investigation until mait became involved. we are an investigative unit, specifically in the area of car accidents. >> as far as evidence here, there's only evidence of where the body was found. there's no parts to a car or truck or any other vehicle. i also took pictures of the body at the mortuary. there is some scrapes and scratches on his left and right arm, on his knuckles, some across his face. but his injuries pertain to his head area, does not appear to be, in my opinion, struck by a vehicle. >> there were several red flags from the start in this investigation. things that were not there should have been there. for example, there's no glass.

with that type of force, it would be glass on the ground or possibly in the body. there's no tire marks. there was no paint from the vehicle, no oil transfer. the phone didn't even fall out of his pocket. the phone didn't shatter. the way the body's laying in the roadway, there's no tumble to the body. the blood itself is just a pool of blood. when you have a body that is hit by a car traveling at 55 miles an hour, they're going to tumble down the road. so why aren't there spots in different areas of the roadway? >> generally, if a pedestrian is hit, they don't keep their shoes on. this guy still had his shoes on. he didn't have the type of injuries you would see when somebody lands violently in a road. it essentially looked as though he was dropped there. uhhh h... here, i'll take that.

along a deserted road when he said he was changing a flat tire. now we are learning what actually happened may be even more unbelievable. >> law enforcement now believes that he conspired with curtis smith to kill him as a part of an insurance fraud scheme. >> everything has just been mind-boggling because you know someone for so long and then a completely different side of him comes out.>> he apparently asked curtis smith, who is friends with him and has done jobs for him, to murder him so that he can get the insurance money to give to buster, his son. >> if he died his living son would have received an estimated $10 million as a part of a life insurance policy. >> he did not think it would pay if he committed suicide, so he wanted him to do the job for him so his son would get the money.>> when i heard about the suicide attempt i did not know

>> i was taking my dad to work and we were taking sandy run road. we pull up to a scene. we didn't know what it was. we just seen state troopers all around the road. no lights. cars are just sitting there running. finally, after waiting like 15 minutes, we took the long way. i dropped my dad off and i was like, hey, i'm going to try to take that way back home because it's a small town. if you see something like that, you you're going to be nosy. so i went back through. they were still there. so i took the other back way home. >> i think i heard it on the radio at like 7:30. i called, and stephanie answered. i said, are you ok? i heard that somebody threw a

i mean, that road essentially was clean. nothing on it. no parts, no glass, no fragments, no anything. i was confident when i left. this is not a wreck. this is a murder. no one has ever that i've worked with on the highway patrol think this is a hit and run. but the sheriff's department and the coroner, they say it is a wreck and the only reason it's a wreck, according to them, is because his body was in the road. no other evidence. we are the ones that specialize in wrecks, not the sheriff's department, not the coroner. but they essentially refused to take the case back and investigate it as foul play. when you think of what's going on, that seems like somebody's trying to cover something up.

car, which was several miles away, parked on the side of the road. the car was not running. the gas cap was off and hanging. the implication being that he was walking home to his father's house. the pathologist had issued a report that it was a hit and run. she said that the reason she thought it was a hit and run is because his body was found in the road. >> when they told me that stephen got hit by a car, you know, i told them, i said, no, he couldn't have. growing up, me and stephen, we walked the roads all the time. it didn't matter what time it was. we'd sneak out the house and walk down our rural country road. 3:00, 4:00 in the morning, if a car came, we would jump in the woods. you know, we were more afraid of what was on the road than what was in the woods.
